Looking up at Mel through your eyelashes might just be your favorite view in the world.
Her hair undone, falling in tangled waves across her pillow from her thrashing. Her head is thrown back, eyes squeezed shut but mouth wide open in a silent gasp. Cheeks flushed with sweat just starting to bead along her hairline.
If you were an artist you would call her your muse and paint her like this, maybe even hang it up on the wall.
The dim light of the lamp on her bedside table slants over her skin, illuminating the room but leaving it cozy, colors muted and atmosphere comforting.
You love this. You love being able to sit back on your knees, leant down with the privilege of having your mouth and hands all over her.
Running over her soft thighs, her hips, her stomach, her belly button; all of it.
Your mouth is wide open, tongue out and tracing clumsy, broad strokes from between her legs. The mixture of your own saliva and the wetness seeping from her combines to a heady, slick mess that you’re all to eager to drink straight from the source.
Mel’s hand comes down on the top of your head. Not pushing, not moving, just holding your head there and feeling the texture of your hair on her finger tips.
She looks down at you and you make electric eye contact with her as your mouth continues its mission. The holds there for a second, then throws her head back again, as if seeing your eyes was too much for her.
Her thighs tense and move to shut before facing the barrier of you, brushing against your ears before she pries them back open for you.
Mel’s quiet, and always has been. Her sounds reduced to small mewls, gasps sucked in through her teeth, and choked groans.
“Okay, oka- mmm,” she groans out. Her hand wrapping just a little tighter around the strands of hair in her grasp.
“I’m- I’m all done, it’s too-“ she chokes out, “too much.”
You give her one last lick, collecting as much as you can, before you pull back, chest heaving as you catch your breath. Your hands settle on her knees as she shuts them. Mel has her arm thrown over her face as she too pulls in deep breaths.
“Sorry, sorry, I-“ she starts.
“No sorry,” you pant, “it’s okay.” you assure her. You’re not sure how to relay to her that any moment you get to have your hands on her is a gift to you. “Sorry I took so long.” you apologize.
Mel likes it fast. As much as she would love a long, lazy ritual that ends with her gasping and shaking, if it goes on for too long she asks you to stop. She’s told you about it before, how the feeling turns slowly from pleasure to overwhelming.
Sometimes you can get her all the way to the finish line, working fast and furious in the ways you know she likes but sometimes, like today, it just doesn’t happen. And that’s okay.
“No, no sorry,” she says, parroting your words back to you. You lean forward and lay yourself down next to her, an arm thrown over her bare chest, still struggling to catch a breath.
She closes the distance between you and catches your lips, tongue immediately sliding along yours. You groan into her mouth as she pushes herself up and over you slightly, your hands sliding down the soft skin of her stomach, just feeling.
“My turn?” she asks, sliding her lips down the slope of your neck.
“If you- mmm,” you groan as her hands find their way to your tits, squeezing one in each hand. “If you want,” you agree.
“Of course I want,” she laughs.
As much as you love going down on her, she might love going down on you even more.
She shifts herself down, situating herself between your legs. As she moves, you wonder which Mel you’re getting today; fast, deliberate, and determined Mel, or slow, sensual, and teasing Mel. Both are good. Both are great.
Mel grins as she looks up at you, a wicked gleam in her eyes. She dives in, the feel of her mouth on you immediately punching all of the air out of your lungs. Okay, fast and deliberate Mel it is.
In just seconds, you’re gasping, hips moving involuntarily as she sets her mouth to work with single-minded determination.
While she might get overwhelmed by receiving, she never gets overwhelmed by giving. Looking down at her now, her eyes closed in focus and a blissful expression on her face, you can tell you’re going to be here a while. Not like you’re complaining.

I am warm and full and cozy and thinking about Bucky who has gotten a few pounds on his stomach, not bc he has to bulk for a mission or anything but bc he's save and get three square meals and a snack every day. Lots of love and a pie on Sunday. The dream honestly
Answering this on a Monday but I feel very cozy about it!
Just Right

Pairing: Chubby!Bucky Barnes x Female Reader
Summary: Bucky learns to love food again, and his body.
Word Count: Over 750
Warnings: Mentions of HYDRA, recovery, body positivity, reference to oral sex, bit of humor, Bucky Barnes (he's a warning, okay?).
A/N: I may need to do more of this, and much appreciated for the inspiration @v-wie-was. ❤️ Not beta read and written on my phone, so any and all mistakes are my own. Please follow @navybrat817-sideblog for new fics and notifications. Comments, reblogs, feedback are loved and appreciated!
Tumblr media
Bucky who was now able to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner with snacks in between each meal and dessert after dinner, which took some getting used to.
Bucky who didn’t get to overindulge in foods he enjoyed while he was under HYDRA’s control. He was given enough to maintain his strength and nothing more and he never decided on what they provided. 
Bucky who, when he thought about it, didn’t get to enjoy food since before he went off to war. He ate to sustain and survive and nothing more.
Bucky who had to learn all over again what he liked and disliked once he was free. Being able to choose was overwhelming and he almost broke down the first time he bought plums simply because he wanted them.
Bucky who with his heightened senses learned to appreciate certain smells and tastes and learned which places to avoid so it didn’t feel like sensory overload. He also learned which flavors he could never get enough of and which ones he could only handle in small doses.
Bucky who had to figure out how much he could eat to feel full and not stop because of his old programming. He also told himself not to feel guilty if he had a few more bites because it was more than allowed.
Bucky who met you at the store one day when you both reached for the same plum. That day changed his life. 
Bucky who, like a gentleman, let you have the plum and couldn't stop staring at you since you were so beautiful. 
Bucky who couldn't think of a witty reply when you boldly offered him your phone number in return, so he gave you an awkward smile that you found endearing.
Bucky who was happy you took a chance since you were easy to talk to. You also taught him that food emojis could be… taken a certain way, which he learned when he sent an eggplant and peach together.
Bucky who couldn’t find it in himself to feel embarrassed because he was talking about food, and he wanted you.
Bucky who enjoyed cooking with you and smiled wistfully when he thought about his family. How his mom always put so much love into her cooking. 
Bucky who made a mess of his shirt one day because he was trying to eat something messy and read at the same time. And you groaned because you had just finished laundry earlier.
Bucky who grew to appreciate messes like that because they felt normal.
Bucky who noticed almost immediately when his clothes began to fit differently, eventually to the point where they were too snug.
Bucky who felt slightly worried when he told you his clothes were too tight and had to go shopping. He wanted to be attractive to you.
Bucky who felt his heart swell when you not only told him he looked good no matter what but offered to go shopping with him. 
Bucky who felt handsome trying on new clothes since they fit properly and just right. The confidence grew when he saw your pupils dilate more and more with each outfit he tried on.
Bucky who also heard your heart race faster and smelled your arousal.
Bucky who didn’t get to make it home before you dropped to your knees to worship him. You made sure to place extra kisses on his stomach on your way down.
Bucky who hardly let people touch him, but welcomed your touch and let you paint him like a canvas with your love and desire. 
Bucky who had a huge smile on his face after the mind-blowing orgasm you gave him along with a promise of pie for dessert. He wanted you for dessert, too.
Bucky who associated certain foods with you because, like you, they brought him joy, comfort, and were downright delicious. 
 Bucky who stood in the kitchen while he waited for dinner to cool off and looked down at his stomach with a smile, reminding himself that any extra pound was just more of him to love and you’d love him no matter what. 
Bucky who thought about how comfortable he was in his skin because he was healthy and able to make his own choices. 
Bucky who gazed at you from across the room and couldn’t believe this was his life, that he found peace, happiness, and love. 
Bucky who was crazy about you and couldn't imagine a meal without you. Or his life.
And Bucky who finally felt safe and free. 
Tumblr media
Okay, lovelies, what do we think his favorite dessert is? Besides you. Love and thanks for reading! ❤️

michael “robby” robinavitch x f!reader
Tumblr media
summary: a glimpse into a slow cozy day with you and your growing little family
word count: 1.8k
content warnings/tags: 18+ only, girl dad!Robby, toddler fic, mentions of unspecified age gap, reader is pregnant, cozy & sweet fluff, husband!Robby & married goodness, introspective moments (thoughts of self doubt and internal struggle), parenting themes, jealous Robby with a splash of protective tenderness, soft domesticity vibes, light baseball discussion
a/n: my first ever fic for the Pitt & I’m so grateful getting to write it for the A Doctor A Day Writing Challenge [ #5 “tell me the truth, am I losing you for good?” + black] thank you so much @letsgobarbs @clubsoft & @ananonymousaffair for hosting this! And a sweet extra thanks to @jolapeno for cheering me on & giving me the push to post this
Robby didn’t believe his days could ever look like this. Soft warm spring light fills a cozy living room. The faint sounds of the Pirates game is on the tv -
And his daughter happily takes his full focus.
Her toys litter the carpet with no regard for any foot traffic and frankly, Robby doesn’t care that much either.
Your little girl is happily engrossed with the toddler hospital checkup playset Abbot got her this year for her birthday. She’s been obsessed with it, barely knows what she’s doing, but Robby can’t tear his eyes away from her.
Especially now as she readily tries to fix her Winnie the Pooh bear lying ready for examination on the pull out countertop.
Her face scrunched up in deep concentration looks exactly like yours as her chubby little hands clumsily put on the stethoscope.
“What’s your diagnosis, doc?” Robby asks her while he slowly sits up to move closer to her.
“Sick.” She quips simply, and his lips twitch amused.
“Did you check his heart? Make sure he’s okay.” He gently touches the center of the stuffed bear’s chest. Immediately his daughter, instead of using the stethoscope, leans down to press her ear against his chest.
Robby can’t help it, he laughs.
“Good, that’s a good start.” He reassures her.
Gently, he moves the colorful child sized stethoscope to sit on her properly. She eagerly roams the diaphragm all around the fuzzy bear’s tummy, diligently searching for something with it.
“Try to find the heartbeat.” He tells her patiently.
Robby then makes the familiar heart beat thump himself with a hum. Her eyes bloom surprised, becoming little bright stars.
She’s so smart, so damn quick. Immediately her sharp gaze flickers up, realizing it’s him making the noise and not the bear.
“Papa!” She cries indignant.
“Not me, mister bear.” Robby innocently replies, tapping the poor plushie patient.
So stubborn, a trait she definitely inherited only from you and not an ounce from him, his daughter shoves the poor bear away and stomps towards Robby where he sits on the edge of the couch, opposite to where you sleep.
Seven months pregnant again and peacefully napping, lightly snoring even though you swear you don’t, you’re the picture of ease and steal Robby’s heart all over again.
When his little girl eagerly arrives at his side, Robby reminds her to stay quiet to make sure you get to rest.
Bubbling with curious eagerness, his daughter nods then presses her tiny hands against his face, checking for a fever the same way he does when she’s sick.
Robby feels as if his heart just might melt from his ribs.
It seems like only yesterday she was keeping you and him awake at all hours of the night as a newborn, so tiny in his arms as Robby went through singing two lullabies to get her to sleep. Now his baby is readily growing as her own little person, bright and curious.
“Check my heart.” He says with a watery grin while she tries listening to his chest.
Then, as if remembering something, she perks up and scurries back to the playset. His eyes perk up seeing her grab an otoscope and hurry back to him.
A burst of pride swells in his chest.
“Papa, say ah!” Gathering a composed sternness, he holds back a laugh while his daughter uses the toy otoscope, used to examine the ears, to check his throat.
But listening to his little girl, he does as told and she peeks inside examining him with the toy.
Then she makes a face, scrunched up and confused.
“What?” He questions curious now.
As caring and sweet as his daughter is, Robby knows exactly how mischievous she’s becoming. The smirk and tiny giggle she gives, he knows she’s up to something.
“What d’ya find, doctor?” He asks her again. She pays her father no mind and grabs a pack of play bandaids from the kit.
Wearing the most amused smirk she hurries back to him, the colorful stereoscope bouncing against her neck. Determined and with a firm step, his daughter arrives before him.
Patiently she then places one of the bandages on his lips. Her diagnosis? For him to stay silent.
“All done!” She announces bright, giggling proud, like she’s made the most hilarious inside joke.
Robby’s lips fight hard against a grin and the bandaid. He moves to take it off when his daughter spots him.
“Nah uh, papa! Rest.” She says with a firm head nod, he blinks stunned at her.
“Bossy… definitely your kid.” Your warm sleepy voice emerges. Gently you sit up from your nap, shoving away the small blanket.
You look so fucking god in his old black penguins hockey t-shirt, especially with your belly growing more and more. Slowly sitting up, you reach for him. Like you’re the extension of him, effortless and without any question, Robby gently draws you towards his side letting you now rest your head against his thigh.
“Mama!” Your daughter cries happy and loud, sliding towards you on the couch.
“I help papa!” She declares.
“Good job, sprout. You’re the doctor of the family now.” You playfully poke her nose.
She giggles triumphant. Robby then watches his little girl throw her small body over your tummy, hugging you and the baby as much as she can.
“Sissy, I help.” She’s been eagerly announcing everything to her little sister once she learned the baby could hear everything.
You finally glance up at Robby grinning at him. Noticing the bandaid on his lips, you gently peel it away before your daughter notices.
“Yeah you do, baby. You’re already such a good big sister wanting to take care of everyone.” You gently tell her through a yawn.
Robby wonders if this moment could shatter at any moment, like it’s too pure and good for him, too precious to believe it’s his.
But when your hand moves to rub his arm, your touch grounds him.
His eldest daughter suddenly squeaks happily, and you snicker. The baby must have kicked.
“Your baby sister is playing kickball in my tummy. Gonna give us a check up now too?” You offer, sitting up more. You now lean against Robby’s shoulder, and he happily welcomes your warmth.
Your daughter now babbles scurrying to the playset and grabs a random wooden spatula that somehow managed to sneak into her toy collection.
Deeming that important to her care, your little girl scurries back and presses her face against his black shirt.
“Sissy, no kick mama.” She orders.
You burst out laughing, and Robby covers his with a quick cough.
“I think she’s got the making of a good physician already,” you tell him.
“Her bedside manner could use some work.” Robby snorts, and you snicker.
Top of the 5th inning and Pirates are still tied zero to zero against the Astros. His daughter now yanks the playset closer to the couch allowing Robby to examine more of the tools.
He’s always been impressed by this thing. It’s rather accurate, makes him appreciate whoever made it.
“They even got the right buttons on the EKG machine, it’s pretty crazy.” He says messing with the toy set.
“I don’t know what kind of kid would want to be playing with this and not legos or barbie dream house or something else.” He lets the comment slide out a bit low.
Robby’s already torn when he thinks of his little girl’s future - if she’ll end up wanting to practice medicine or not. If that colorful stethoscope she wears will one day match his, black and professional.
A quiet sigh escapes you letting your hand rub his back now.
“She plays with both… plus I think she likes knowing she gets to pretend to be a grown up and help people like you.”
He lets your words sit gently and decides not to keep digging into this tangled topic.
“I still can’t believe there’s even multiple syringe and scissor options.” He chuckles, changing the subject.
“Might as well have included some clamps and blood bags.” Robby adds and then picks up one of the toys.
It takes him a moment to realize he's been rambling out loud mindless thoughts about this damn toy set for the game to be in a new inning now.
You’ve gone quiet now, and his eyes flicker down to you leaning against his chest.
“Alright,” he begins with a sigh.
“Tell me the truth… am I losing you for good?” He means it half jokingly.
Robby still can’t believe how lucky he is to have you, his absolutely gorgeous sweetheart. He’s holding his breath still, waiting any minute for you to wake up and realize you got stuck married to an old man like him.
Hell, just last week Robby had to calm himself down when the cashier had no fucking shame flirting with you, even as you wear Robby’s ring on your finger and have his second baby growing in your belly.
It’s almost as if a part of him is waiting to fully lose you, let you slip away from his fingers.
Your hand curls against his face now, rubbing against his bearded jaw as you draw him closer.
You place the softest kiss on his lips.
“Not at all,” you tell him gently. “If anything you hook me in more and more, Robinavitch. You’re stuck with me.”
A warmth collides in his chest like an unleashed sea.
Robby smirks, humming content as he places a kiss against your head.
“Love ya, kid.” He warmly tells you, sliding his arm around you.
And he does.
He adores you so damn much, didn’t think it was possible to love you any more but you love to prove him wrong.
His eldest daughter, now bored with the doctor's playset equipment, currently sits on the carpet floor fiddling with a colorful whale toy.
The pirates, now up to bat, suddenly hit a home run. Even through the tv, the ball is sent flying with a solid whack.
Robby cheers appreciatively, and your daughter immediately perks up eagerly scrambling to him with excited eyes as she bounces holding onto his arm.
“Papa, good?” She asks, picking up the excitement from the game.
“Yes baby girl, very good.” He grins.
“See,” you pat his leg affectionately, “No need to worry about her.”
“You’re gonna play baseball for the Pirates right, sprout?” You ask your daughter.
“Yup!” She says bright, probably not even realizing what she’s agreeing to as her focus stays on the TV.
That makes him laugh.
He’s never felt older and younger all at once, like a multitude of lifetimes has collided into him a beautiful cosmos shining bright.
All his girls together right before him, and he’s never felt luckier.
Robby wants to carve out this moment forever, letting it crystallize around him and soak in this warmth. One he wants to embrace and never let go.

summary: also known as the story of how you became jack abbot's sugar baby.
word count: 7.8k
tags: younger reader/sugar baby dynamic, reader is in an unspecified masters program, reader is poor (sorry girl), descriptions of burn wound, jack tends to reader's wound because why wouldn't he!, robby guest appearance, smut (hard and fast and creampie.. sorry), these two are so cute and i love this reader
note: based on this blurb. enjoy! crazy what motivation can do. go listen to don’t worry baby by the beach boys 💛
Tumblr media
you should have known you were in trouble when dr. jack abbot of the closest emergency room handed you a full-size tube of the expensive burn gel you needed and said in a firm yet gentle voice: don’t worry about it, kid.
little did he know that you did worry about it, that you worry about everything and then some. like the ridiculous injury that led you here in the first place—ridiculous and embarrassing, a double whammy. you were writing a paper at two in the morning despite the fact that the words on the screen had stopped making sense hours ago, determined to get at least another three pages done before calling it quits. 
what you really needed was a coffee, but instead, stupidly, you settled for making hot chocolate. you thought it would be comforting, like a warm hug, which is probably what you really need and since you live alone, it’s not like you’re going to get that anywhere else. 
so—hot chocolate, with milk rather than water, and mini marshmallows. you make it on the stove because it’s just better that way, and despite how you feel about yourself deserving things, you think you can waste the few extra minutes to make it the right way.
except you probably should have made the cup of coffee. after two am, your brain really, really stops working. your palm ends up against the burner of your stove and you cry out from pain before realizing what you’ve just done. 
“fuck. fuck, fuck, fuck-” you curse, taking your hand to the sink immediately and running it under cold water. it stings and the pain isn’t going away, and then you realize a few other things.
one—that you have nothing besides bandaids and neosporin in this apartment. two—that you have no idea how to take care of a burn. and three—you really, really should have just gone to sleep. 
on the verge of tears that are about to spill over, you keep your hand wrapped against a towel, slip into real shoes, and call an uber to the nearest emergency room. you’d walk but you’re in pajama shorts and a hoodie and it’s three in the morning and you don’t think you can handle anything else going wrong right now.
your paper is abandoned at your desk. the cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows melting in it looks at you almost jeeringly. and you think you’ll never trust your stove again.
you wait for a little bit but luckily, it’s not as packed as you were worried it’d be. you still have to finish that paper when you get back home, and if the sun is up by then there’ll be no sleeping for you. the nurse looks at you kindly when she notices your wet eyes and wobbly chin as you explain you accidentally burnt yourself and you didn’t know what to do.
“hold tight, honey. the doctor will be right in.” you thank her and then curse to yourself—you’re reaching levels of stupidity unknown to man. you hope she’ll tell the doctor it was just a burn and whoever it is will leave it at that. you don’t think you have energy to explain this to anyone and your face burns with embarrassment at the very idea.
then the curtain gets pulled back and he walks in and whatever thought you were thinking flies out the window.
“hi, i’m dr. abbot,” he says, his head tilted down—showing you a mane of messy salt and pepper curls—and looking at the tablet in his hands. he looks up at you to confirm your name and then your birthday, though in all honesty, he could have said something completely wrong and you would have nodded and agreed.
your doctor is handsome. he’s hot. like grey’s anatomy level hot. like, some other medical show that your brain recognizes but can’t currently remember the name of hot. 
“so you burned yourself? can i take a look?” as stupid as it is—you don’t think you’ve ever been stunned into silence by a man before. his words are gentle and sincere and it sounds like he really cares about whatever's wrong with you—so many things you can't begin to name them all right now. fuck, he asked you something. you nod and then he looks up at you again. “i kind of need to hear you say it.”
fuck. me. what the hell kind of doctor says things like that to deliriously delusional women at three in the morning?
“yes. yes, thank you.” you move the towel and lift your palm towards him and he takes a gloved hand to support you. you can feel his fingers against the back of your hand, holding you in place, and normally that contact would be enough to have you reeling into never-never land where all the doctors are hot and single and you’re presenting with a more much cool, mature injury. 
but then you notice his arms, and you have to bite your cheek so hard to not accidentally say anything you will without a doubt regret. hot doctor is jacked, with huge arms and a scrub top that covers most of his biceps. his forearms are thick and veiny and your eyes focus on them for way, way too long. you can make out so many freckles on his skin that it presents like a galaxy. you momentarily forget how badly your hand hurts. he sucks in a breath and looks at you again, making intense eye contact that you can’t bear. you look away immediately.
“ouch. so how’d this happen?” he asks, and you groan before you can stop yourself—of course he’s a good doctor who doesn’t cut corners and has to make sure you’re not suicidal or a masochist or something. “you okay, kid?” 
what the fuck. one man cannot be doing it for you in so many ways—this dr. abbot should have never existed because you don’t know how you’re going to stop thinking about him. when you meet his eyes again and can actually look into them—hazel and very pretty, because of course they are—they’re filled with concern.
you can’t imagine how crazy you must look to him right now. plaid pajamas shorts, a grey hoodie for some sports team you know nothing about, messy hair. you curse yourself for not doing your makeup earlier. 
“yes, i’m sorry. i-i was just hoping you wouldn’t ask.”
“yeah?” he says, with a teasing lilt to his voice. seriously, fuck this guy. “why’s that?”
“i…i was making hot chocolate. y’know, the good kind. stovetop with milk and the tiny-” jack looks at you with a smile, holding back a laugh and you lose your train of thought and trail off. “marshmallows. the tiny ones. and i was half-asleep already working on this paper, so, yeah. that’s, um, the story.” 
jack asks you some other questions quietly—about what you’re in school for and how you like it—probably to distract you while he cleans your wounds. his touch alone is enough of a distraction and the way the muscles in his arms move while he does is enough to make you black out, but you still answer politely and try to not embarrass yourself further. 
when your wound is all wrapped up, you cover your mouth to stifle a yawn and blink tiredly at dr. abbot.
“thank you,” you repeat for what must be the hundredth time—though you are very thankful. different people wearing scrubs interrupted him to ask a question probably three or four times and he never once stepped away from your bedside or left to go help someone else, even though you told him you could wait. 
“you’re very welcome,” he stands up and you get your hand back and it feels much colder without his touch. stupid, you think to yourself, don’t think that! you are stupid! “now, don’t get this wet and change the wrap daily. when you’re changing, if it looks red or swollen or there’s any pus, you come straight back. and you’ll need burn gel. the nurse is going to give you some packets but it’s a bigger wound so you’ll have to buy a bottle at the pharmacy. that sound okay?” 
you want to shake your head and tell him no, it kind of doesn’t. for starters you don’t want to leave his comfortable presence—maybe you’re just really lonely. if you had more money you’d get a cat so you’re not so alone all the time, but it’s one thing to subject yourself to poverty, bringing in a cute little kitten to your life is just stupid. oh god—there you go again. he said something and you can’t even remember what it is. you blink dumbly at dr. abbot. 
right—burn gel. the real answer is no, insanely handsome doctor jack, i unfortunately cannot buy a bottle of burn gel at the moment, not until my next paycheck. but admitting all of that to him right now, after the already humiliating hot chocolate story, seems the emotional equivalent of your own personal 9/11. instead you lie and nod.
“sounds good.”
he smiles at you and you smile back, though you feel incredibly silly.
“don’t try to make hot chocolate half asleep again, kid. just go to bed next time,” jack says and you feel your face flush and burn at his words—you feel like a child getting scolded by dad. “and get some sleep, okay?” 
“yeah. thank you, dr. abbot,” you say quietly. he smiles one last time, closes the curtain and leaves you in there alone again.
and though you thought it very nearly impossible, you do fuck up one more time before leaving pittsburg trauma medical center. you ask the nurse, who brings you two tiny samples of the burn gel, if there’s any way you could have more, explaining in not so many words that you’re a student and hoping that she gets the gist of what you’re trying to say.
“oh. well, let me go ask dr. abbot, and if he says yes, i can-”
“no! no, never mind. this is perfect, i’ll figure it out, um-” you scramble to your feet to get the burn gel packets and your paperwork.
“just one second, okay, i’ll be right back.” the nurse—young and very pretty and probably new, which is why she wants to make sure she’s not making a mistake, rushes out.
and you, not sure if this is exactly against-medical-advice, take your belongings and head outside to go back home.
(the nurse does go to jack—asking if she can give you some more packets of burn gel because you can’t afford it. he agrees immediately, thinking that he would have given you more if you had told him, wondering why you hadn’t. he goes back to your bed to give them to you himself, but you’re not there.)
+
and two days later, staring at your hand post-shower, still needing to write two thousand words before bed, you wonder if it looks a little… red. 
you hadn’t gotten it wet, but you’re using the burn gel sparingly, and maybe because you’re not using enough, it had gotten infected.
fuck. you should have just coughed up the money to pay for the big bottle—you’re so dumb sometimes. you try to justify that it’s not red, it’s just the lighting, but when you take a picture with flash, you don’t think it’s in your head. 
an hour later, it starts to hurt again like the first day. double fuck.
grumbling something about cyclical poverty, you pull on your hoodie over your outfit of the day, which was at least some-what cute. both things thrifted—a denim skirt and a plain pink henley—but it’s cold, so on the jacket goes. it’s a struggle to get it on without hurting your hand but you figure it out. it’s only just hit nine o’clock but it’s dark—so there goes another charge for the uber.
you go inside and go up to the lady with whom you check in, telling her you were here a few days ago for a burn, and that somehow must mean you get priority access, because the nurse—a different one—brings you back right away. 
you wait for someone to tell you dr. abbot’s not here but there’s another just-as-good doctor, preferably one with normal arms and a normal smile that doesn’t make the lines around his eyes crinkle and light up his whole face and doesn’t make you fall headfirst into numerous, unrealistic fantasies, mostly centered around what a hug in those absolutely abnormal arms would feel like and—
you realize you’ve lost the plot as soon as dr. abbot pulls back the curtain.
“oh. i didn’t know if it would be you again.”
“it’s me again.” you must look starstruck, you conclude, with the way he looks at you and smiles and takes a seat on the stool in the room. now you’re the one staring—crow’s feet and all. “so what happened?”
“i was looking at it after my shower and, i-i don’t know, it just looks red. and it started to hurt again and i-i have to write so many papers and i don’t wanna lose my whole hand because i didn’t use enough burn gel-”
“hey,” he says, firmly yet still tinged with gentleness. like someone talking to a skittish animal—which, you think, you pretty much are at this point. the fact that he's the one taming you makes you dizzy. “you’re gonna be fine. you’re here now, so i can take of it.” 
you refuse to let yourself read between the lines—the way he only mentions himself. the way you think he should have said so i can take care of you. 
“o-okay. thank you, dr. abbot.” 
you peel away the shitty, rushed bandage wrap and let him observe your palm closely. he’s so close that you can almost feel the heat radiating from his body. 
after what feels like ages, he tells you it’s not infected. you sigh before you can stop yourself, shoulders sagging in relief. jack looks at you with an expression you don’t recognize—like he’s a little confused and amused at the same time.
“but it’s good that you came in anyways.” you face burns when he pulls out a tube of the burn you were supposed to be using generously from the pocket of his scrubs. 
“oh, um, listen, i can explain-”
“don’t worry about it, kid.” you accept the bottle and stare at him and he does the usual thing—tells you to come in if it gets worse, use the gel and if you need another tube, just come back here and find him, making you flush hard and get teary-eyed when he finally leaves.
maybe it’s just nice to be taken care of, for once. but you shouldn’t get dependent on it. you indulge in the reality until the uber is there to take you home, and then you conclude that you’ll likely never see dr. jack abbot, the kind hearted, good physician who took care of your wound twice now, ever again. 
until you do.
sometimes your work writes itself when you’re in a new environment, and you blame the lack of progress on your boring, tiny apartment. there’s a coffee shop not too far from campus that another girl in your masters program had told you about. good coffee, even better pastries, and there’s always cute guys, she had said with a laugh. 
you had been so focused on figuring out what the cheapest thing to buy was that you forgot the ending half of your friend’s sentence. from the hospital nearby.
there’s always cute guys from the hospital nearby.
you get settled with a small iced coffee and start typing away, working with an intent to make sure this paper gets done because it’s been put off long enough, when the door opens and you almost feel him before you see him.
it’s eight in the morning. why would he even be here? it’s not him—you conclude, staring at the back of a man in a dark blue shirt that fits him a little too snugly and green cargo pants. you don’t see the telltale black stethoscope or an id badge that tells you anything, just the profile of his back and a head of messy, gray curls.
fuck. it's him, isn't it? of course it's him. jack orders and then steps away to wait for it, hot coffee black in the biggest size they have. and when he turns around, he sees you looking at him like a deer in headlights. then you turn your head down immediately, as if you’re trying to hide and make yourself as small as you can.
he chuckles to himself because you’re pretty cute when you do things like that. 
you keep your head down long enough, pretending to be so engrossed in your paper, that you get a little too locked-in, not realizing the footsteps approaching belong to him.
“is this seat empty?” jack asks, and you almost jolt with the realization that he’s so close to you. 
you look up tentatively, bracing yourself for the encounter, reminding yourself not to act a complete fool like you have the last two times. 
“yes. hi, dr. abbot. small world, huh,” you say, though it’s not a question, more of a cruel joke.
“yeah, kid. you still working on that paper?”
“yes. it’s, um, a real beast,” you say, before realizing how dumb you must sound to him. “oh my god, not that, it’s like a real job, or anything, or as hard as yours. it’s just taking a lot longer than usual, and-” “don’t say that. that’s plenty hard. i couldn’t do it, that’s for sure,” he says, in that gentle voice that still sounds like he’s teasing you but you know he’s not because he’s so sincere. your head feels like it's spinning from a single sentence. 
“really?” you ask, feeling like a stupid, scared child all over again.
“yes.”
the validation washes over you and you try to soak in every drop—it’s been a while that someone older than you hasn’t made you feel silly for what you’re pursuing. or rather, for the fact that it is hard sometimes, that it’s not just typing away at a computer all day. the research and the readings and the discussions and everything that you pour into your work, the stuff that no one in your life save for your favorite professors seem to understand.
jack is intoxicating, and you’re beginning to realize how much of a problem that is.
he smiles at you and you smile at him, reaching for your coffee just so you have something else to focus on because his attention is almost blinding, when you stop your hand half-way. it’s empty.
you bring your hand back to your lap awkwardly and look up at him, hoping he didn’t notice. he did.
“so, are you coming straight from the hospital?” you try to pivot the conversation away from yourself because the truth is that you could listen to him talk for hours.
“yeah, i just finished the night shift. and i’ve got a couple days off so i figured i’d get a coffee before tackling my list of things i’ve been putting off.”
“that’s always a smart idea,” you say.
“yeah. you’re doing the same thing, huh?”
“i guess i just needed to get out of the house. and drink something that’s made without bodily harm involved.”
he laughs, so you laugh, and then you stare at his pretty, sparkly eyes and wonder why everything feels so easy around him. the concern that you’re not good enough or not working hard enough melts away and you feel so much lighter. your struggles are forgotten, if just for a moment, and you realize that this, unfortunately, is something very bad. because he’s not going to be around you much longer.
the barista calls out his name and he says he’ll be right back, getting up quickly. you think he would have said that he’ll see you around and in true doctor fashion, remind you to take care of your wound, but he didn’t. 
you conclude that he must be saving it for after his coffee, that he’ll pass by on the way out. you’re a little distracted with your thoughts to notice that he’s gone for a little too long.
he comes back with his coffee—large and in a hot cup, the polar opposite of yours—and a pastry in a bag. 
but then he hands it to you. 
“oh—what?” you ask, confused. 
“it’s for you. you haven’t eaten, right?” “well, no, but i-” he sets the bag down next to your empty coffee cup. “you didn’t have to do that, i, um, i-”
“that’s okay. i was a student once too, y’know.” 
“yeah. wow, um, thank you. that’s so nice of you.” you’re so stunned you can’t even begin to piece together jack’s reaction. it’s a five dollar pastry, and he thinks briefly he’d buy you ten of them if you really wanted, with how grateful you seem. 
“they’re making you another coffee, so pay attention for your name.”
“dr. abbot, i-” your eyes are wide like coins, heart thudding in your chest, confused and dizzy and unable to process how nice this man is.
“it’s nothing, kid. don’t worry about it.” 
you laugh at how crazy this whole things seem to you—or maybe you’re just not very used to nice things.
“you should stop because i’m gonna get used to this,” you say half-joking with a smile and another laugh, taking a bite of the delicious pastry so he’ll be appeased.
“maybe you should.” you blink at him. “i gotta go, kid, but here’s my number.” he takes out a pen from his pocket and scribbles the number on the back of the paper bag the pastry came in. “call me if you need anything, hm? for your hand or anything else."
you stare at him blankly, and he laughs, and heads out with his coffee, turning to look at you one last time when he’s at the door.
the barista calls out your name and there’s a large iced coffee waiting for you on the counter.
yeah, you’re in trouble.
+
you save jack’s contact but you don’t text him, worried that he’ll think you only want to see him for his money or the seemingly endless generosity that’s always pouring from him.
you do need need help—there's a half assembled desk from facebook marketplace that you didn't have the tools to finish yourself, despite how hard you tried. but you can't possibly ask him for help with that—he's a stranger. he's your doctor. so you don't do anything with his number.
it’s just as well because the universe has other plans for you two.
you work a part-time job to pay for your tiny apartment. it’s inconsistent, you get scheduled when they’re really busy, and now that it’s getting warmer out, there's more shifts. 
so saturday morning, bright and early, you get ready, first wrapping your hand as discreetly as you can. it’s doing much better now, half of which you attest to the burn gel and half to jack’s healing powers. then your hair and make-up, and then whatever seems suitable for the hot weather today. 
there’s no uniform, at least, and you decide on a black athletic skirt and a pink shirt with the material that helps you not get too sweaty, even though you’re in the shade of the drink cart for most of your shift. 
it’ll be a full day so you pack lunch and fill up your water bottle before making your way to the golf course. you’re assigned a specific section and you pray to god it’s filled with stupid, rich businessman who tip way too much if you flutter your eyelashes at them.
it’s a little skeevy at times, but money is money, and no one’s ever tried anything more than a failed pick-up line or the more sober friends dragging away the drunk guy who lingers, even though they all wear wedding bands. 
you make the first round, and though it’s early and you’re more of a disarming, clumsy sort of charming, when you smile brightly and say it’s five o’clock somewhere, it’s enough to the men golfing to laugh and buy hard seltzers.
a little bit later, the beers start selling, and by noon, you have to go restock your cart. it’s been a good shift—you think if it keeps up like this, your tips will be enough to put towards rent and if there’s extra, you can go find a dress if you ever work up the nerve to text jack and ask him on a date.
but post lunch, to your surprise, it slows down a little. it’s hot out and you have to admit to yourself you were never going to be brave enough to text jack. at least if your rent gets almost paid, you’ll feel better than you did last night.
you drive around on the cart, stopping in front of a tall man who you think is golfing alone. in your experience, if they’re alone, they’re looking to get drunk.
“hi,” you sing, hoping he’s a good tipper. he looks nice when he smiles at you but you never know. “would you like anything to drink?” 
“two beers, please. thank you, sweetheart.”
the nickname, like always, make you a little flustered. it’s always the older guys who lavish them on you, and when they’re wrinkly and too old it’s not that big of a deal, but when they’re in this one specific age range—your heart churns remembering that jack is probably a part of that group, just like this guy—it’s enough to make you spiral. many things are, you conclude, unsure how you’ve made it this far in life.
“two?” you confirm, since you don’t see anyone else around.
“yes, just waiting on a buddy of mine.” 
“oh, okay. coming right up,” you respond, leaning over to pick up two beers. when you turn back to tell them the price, again, you feel him before you hear it. 
“our livers are gonna be shot, man.” you hear it in the distance. 
“well, after the week i’ve had, i deserve it-” the man next to you shouts out to his friend, who you, unfortunately, recognize. you hear footsteps getting closer and closer.
“yeah, yeah. don’t come calling when you want a piece of my liver. i got it,” jack says, approaching you. you turn around to face him. “oh. hi, kid. talk about a coincidence, huh?” 
you want to say something but you’re not sure how to get it out without stammering. 
jack’s eyes rake over your body—short skirt, tight shirt, cute golf shoes that you had spent way too much money on. you just wanted to play the role and fit in and it had all seemed worth it at the time.
and then he notices how you’re holding onto the beers with both hands, condensation dripping onto your mostly-dry bandage. and he turns into dr. abbot right before your eyes. “hey, hey, let me take those. you’re supposed to be keeping this thing dry,” he says, handing one over to robby. 
“you two know each other?” his friend says, his eyes going from you to jack and back to you.
“yeah. listen, i’ll be right over.” 
“sure,” robby says. “thank you again for the beer,” he tells you and you weakly smile before he walks away.
“i-i did keep it dry. it’s doing better. but i didn’t want to turn down work so-”
“yeah, but, i don’t want you compromising the healing. how long have you been out here? have you been drinking water?”
“yes, i have,” you say earnestly, his concern for you making you light-headed, though you resist the urge to fall directly into his arms, no matter how much it possesses you. 
“as your doctor, i don’t think i can recommend this.”
“i’m sorry,” you say, unsure of what else you can tell him. “you know how it is. gotta pay for coffee somehow, right?”
“you didn’t text me. or call. i was hoping for a call but i figured you’d send a text, but then you didn’t.”
“i’m sorry-” “stop apologizing. i-i’m kidding. you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. i just meant-” “i wanted to,” you pipe up, interrupting him. “i still want to. i just-i just got nervous, i guess. you’re like a real doctor and i’m, i’m barely a real student.” “why do you do that?” “do what?” “make it seem like it’s lesser. you are a student, you told me all about it. it’s impressive.”
“no it’s not. you don’t have to lie-” “i’m not lying.” 
you pause, processing everything happening in front of you.
“i’m sorry i didn’t text you.”
“that’s okay, kid. i’ll take your word for it this time.” “i didn’t think you’d actually want to see me, i guess.”
“yeah? why’s that?” he gets in a little closer, until he’s in the shade of your cart with you. he stares intensely and you feel yourself getting warm, unable to answer, unable to even remember what he had said. 
“i-i-”
“you, you?” you hear it in the distance—his friend calling out his name. jack takes a step away from you and looks over. “i gotta go. thanks for the beer, kid.” he pushes cash into your hand and you feel like you’ve been shocked with a live wire where your hands touch. “if you don’t text me, i can’t get your number, you know.” 
and then he walks away. and in your hand is a hundred-dollar bill for two beers.
+
it turns out, that texting jack was, indeed, a mistake. you text him a simple sentence—hi, followed with your name so he knows who it is. maybe he has other former patients he’s giving his number out to—you don’t know. (you hope not, as the thought just made you nauseous.)
he calls you a few minutes later and completely unprepared, you have to answer, and talk to him on the phone as you pace around your tiny living room until your downstairs neighbor hits the ceiling with a broom to get you to stop.
jack is a planner, you realize, because after the phone call where he asked about your day and you learned about his, you have a date for friday night. 
against every better instinct, you go buy a new, used dress for the date from your favorite consignment store, using the money from jack’s tip. you get dressed up hours in advance, unable to focus on your work, but rather chewing your cheek and reapplying your lip gloss until it’s time to go downstairs. 
jack meets you outside your apartment, though he tells you he was going to come up. he has flowers for you but you elect to carry them, not sure if you’re prepared for him to see the tiny place you call home.
this has never happened before. your first date with a man, rather than a boy, and he brought you flowers and he’s driving you to the restaurant and he gets out first and tells you to wait and then goes around and opens the door for you.
it’s ridiculous. it’s like a movie.
the first date goes well, you think.
well—it’s the best first date you’ve ever had. jack tells you all about his life but he always stops to ask about yours, though yours isn’t nearly as interesting. instead you preen him on about his time in the service, and he tells you about the prosthetic you saw when he was at the golf course, and why he wanted to become a doctor and how he likes it there now. 
(when you bring that up, he puts his hand over your injured one, still wrapped with a much smaller bandage than before, and asks how your hand is for probably the third time that night, like he has to keep checking to make sure you’re okay. it’s dizzying. everything about him is dizzying.)
he lets you pick dessert and walks you up to your door and kisses you goodnight, and you have to refrain from inviting him inside right then and there.
you stare at the flowers daily—not sure when one date had become two, and then three, and then four.
he brings you a box of chocolates—the good kind—on the second date and you makeout for twenty minutes in his car after. new flowers on the third one, when you end up seeing inside his gorgeous apartment for the first time and also end up on his lap for the better part of an hour.
and then the fourth one, which was supposed to be a late lunch after his shift at the hospital, you very nearly have to cancel. jack is outside your door and you still have a complex about your apartment, but you let him inside while you scramble around.
“woah, woah,” he says, steadying you by your shoulders and turning you towards him. “what’s going on?”
“um, work called and this girl is sick and they want me to come in but i-i have to see the bus times or call an uber and i don’t even know where my golf shoes are and-”
“just tell them no, then sweetheart,” he says, and you blink at him.
“but i should really go. if it’s busy it’s like enough to pay half my rent, and-” jack sighs, moving his hands from your shoulders to your waist.
“i don’t think you should have to worry about things like this.” 
the way he says it, it sounds very final, very firm and absolute.
“i wish it was that easy,” you say, but when you turn to meet jack’s eyes again, he’s already looking at you intensely.
“it is. let me care of it.” 
and it’s jarring. letting him pay for every date—though you paid for the ice cream after date two, something you pride yourself on—is one thing. letting him pay for coffee because he sends you money when you mention you’re going to the coffee shop to work is… something. but letting him pay for your life—your rent and your bills—is something else entirely. it’s dependence, it’s serious, it’s what you’d expect if you were engaged or his sugar baby or something—
“stop overthinking it. you know how much i like you, right?” you nod dumbly. “then let me take care of it. let me take care of you.” 
unfortunately—it’s way, way too easy to give in. you’ve never been the spoiled sort, ever, but with jack, you get to be. you tell work you can’t come in and you don’t feel incredibly guilty about it for the first time. you get to go on your lunch date and then kiss jack goodbye and tell him to have a good day at work, instead. jack sends you a direct deposit for your rent, and you think he’s made a mistake at first—it’s almost double what you need. you call him to tell him about his mistake but he says the same thing he always does.
i know. the extra is for you. don’t worry about it, kid. 
it’s incredible what those five words can do to your body and soul. it gets worse—the next time you see him, when you’re hearing home after a day of classes and he’s heading to the hospital, he takes out a little box and hands it to you, telling you to open it at home. and then he kisses you until your knees are weak and drops you off at your apartment. 
on the elevator, you open it—a pretty necklace with a glittery diamond that probably costs three times your monthly rent. 
you’ve never thought you’d get used to be spoiled like this so quickly—but you do. it’s not like you need so many luxurious things, but the little luxuries add up so quickly to the point where you’re overwhelmed. a new pair of shoes for every day because your old ones were hurting your soles. a large coffee and a pastry when you go to the coffeeshop to work. when your laptop stops working, you don’t freak out and cry like you’re programmed to do, you just tell jack and he helps you pick out a new one a few hours later.
intoxicating is the only word you can use to describe jack abbot and his affect on you.
and after another date—matching earrings for your necklace this time, ones that he helped you put on—you end up in apartment, staring at the bustling city below you from his huge windows. jack comes up behind you, kissing your cheek and then your ear, which makes you laugh, and then your shoulder and your neck, and you melt into his touch. 
you’ve been doing nothing but kissing for the time you’ve known him, and you think you’ve been fed up for long enough. actually, you know you have, but he’s been the one insisting to take it slow, like he doesn’t want to scare you off.
you wrap your arms around him and bring him in for another kiss, though this one feels slightly different. hot and wet and hard, the two of you pushed so tightly against each other that your mouth hurts. you open it further to let him push his tongue inside, and you realize as fun as this is, you need more. you need whatever jack abbot will give you.
his hands—still enough to make you think voltage is buzzing through them because every time he touches you, you feel like you’ve been hit with a live wire—grab your waist and roam up and down your back. you moan into his mouth and jack pulls away briefly, letting you catch your breath.
“please, jack?” you ask, and that’s all he can let you get out, smashing his mouth against yours again. 
you squeal when he picks you up, carrying you to the bedroom and letting you land on his bed with a gentle thud.
“i wanted to stay out there,” you say softly, running your hands over his shirt, exploring his chest. your hands go to the buttons, undoing them even through your hands feel a little shaky. 
“yeah? why’s that?” jack answers in that quiet, rough voice that makes you so wet you can’t think straight. he hovers over you, leaning into press another kiss to your neck that makes you moan. “wanted to give everyone a show, huh?” he presses his lips to yours and you giggle against them.
“s’not my fault you have such big windows.” then, emboldened, you keep going. “maybe i just wanted to show everyone that i can take care of you too.” 
jack pulls away, staring at you with those eyes. those eyes, those eyes. it’s enough to drive you crazy, the way his gaze is so intense. you feel chills run through your whole body despite how hot and flushed you feel. you can’t help it—jack abbot makes you feel every emotion in the book at the same time.
“yeah, kid? you want to take care of me?” you nod, your hand finishing unbuttoning his shirt and helping him take it off. 
“please, jack. i really do.” you let your hand wander to his bulge, palming him while biting your lip at the sheer size you’re feeling. he’s so big it’s going to hurt—though right now you can’t think about anything other than getting him inside your mouth so you can finally begin to take care of him how he’s been taking care of you.
“next time, kid, i promise-”
“ja-ack,” you whine. you think you’ve gotten a little too used to getting exactly what you want from him. it’s his own fault—he shouldn’t have spoiled you so much.
“come on, sweetheart. i thought you’d be good for me, huh?” 
“but i wanted to-” you feel jack’s hands wander up your thighs, searching for the fabric of your panties, but he can’t find it. instead he feels the wetness between your legs, the your juices coating the inside of your thighs. he chokes out a laugh, burying his head into your neck like he can’t believe the sight in front of him.
“you’re not wearing anything underneath this?” he asks, and you shake your head, biting back a smile. “oh, kid. you’re in for it now.”
you squeal again, trying to fight his hard grip but jack keeps you firm in place, his lips crushing down on yours again, his tongue in your mouth. he pulls your dress up until it’s bunched around your thighs, and he’s still in his slacks but you want him inside of you so badly that you don’t think you can wait for the clothes to come off. 
“shh,” jack says against your ear, nipping at it right above your pretty new earrings. “i’ll give you what you want. i just gotta stretch you out first.” 
the words are enough to make your eyes roll all the way back—your head hits the pillow with a thud. jack keeps you distracted with a kiss while your wrap your hands around his neck. his finger get closer and closer to where you want them, and when he slips inside one thick finger, you gasp against his lips.
“yeah?” he teases, “feel good? i know, sweetheart, just take it.”
 the stretch of just one is incredible, but then he adds a second, pushing them in and out with his palm flush against your clit, the pressure building in your stomach already.
it’s a combination of everything, you think. the soft sheets that smell like him, the way you’re both too eager to even take your clothes off. how the jewelry you’re wearing is from him, just because. 
and finally, his weight on top of you, even when you’re begging him to let you take care of him for once, he can’t rest, he can’t stop it, like it’s so engrained in him. like his only mission in life is to take care of you.
jack adds a third finger and you don’t think you’ve ever been so stretched out in your life. panting against him, you lean in for another kiss, sloppy and wet.
you pull back so you can stare at jack’s expression while he fucks his fingers into you harder and faster, so wet that he’s almost slipping out. he’s flushed, pretty silver hair damp against his forehead, and you reach over without thinking to brush some of it away.
“c’mon kid, cum for me. i know you want to. let me take care of you, hm? don’t think, don’t think, just cum-” 
and you do. it’s explosive, though you’ve always thought this sort of orgasm was impossible for you to achieve. you guess nothing’s impossible when jack abbot is the one doing it. you hear him before you fully feel it—fuck, yes, good girl—and your entire body tenses and tightens as that coil low in your belly snaps and washes over you. if you had ever thought his touch was electric, then today it was lightening. he rides you through it, not stopping until you’re practically pushing his hand away, and even then, he only stops to laugh against your sweaty skin. 
like he knew it’d be too much for you. like he’s only just begun breaking you in.
every muscle is aching and sore by the end of it. your body collapses into his mattress and you flutter your eyes shut, still leaning for another kiss, even when your brain is so tired it can’t think straight.
“good job, sweetheart,” he says, and you hum against him. “you think you’re ready for it?” 
when he says it like that, you can’t help but nod. 
jack lines himself up with your leaking cunt, and you can’t imagine what a mess you’ve made on his nice sheets. but when he pushes inside you, your eyes roll back again and you lose all train of thought.
damn him—you can’t even keep a sentence coherent anymore. it’s not fair. 
you feel so full. your toes curl and your muscles scream at you, but with jack’s grip tight on your hips, the fabric of his pants rubbing against you because he had just taken himself out, not taken them off entirely, it’s hard to complain. 
he sets a rhythm that makes you cry out against him, so loud that you’re worried his neighbors will hear. but jack doesn’t seem to care, encouraging you, hitting that spot inside of you that makes you see stars over and over again. 
the sheer size of him is enough to make you cum again, you think, deliriously and delusionally. 
your eyes are shut tight, but when you open them and meet jack’s eyes, you smile at him like you can’t believe this is real. 
“j-jack,” you moan, unsure of your own volume. you hear the bedframe thud against the wall repeatedly, feel jack hold your legs up to get deeper in you, if that’s even possible. he looks down at where you two are connected, like he’s unable to pull his gaze away from there. “jack, it feel s-so good,” you hiccup, wet eyes meeting his. 
“yeah, kid?” he asks, the words coming out in a shuddery breath. “fuck, oh fuck.” hearing him say that makes your toes curl, and when he picks up his pace and starts battering against that one spot in you, your feel it again—the electric current washing over you and running through each nerve, making your limbs into jello and your heart race so fast you think it’ll thud out of your chest.
you dig your nails into jack’s back, leaving little crescent shaped marks in your wake. and when you bring him for another kiss, you whisper it against his lips, watery eyes blinking up at him through wet eyelashes, just because you felt like you had to say it.
“thank you for taking care of me, jack.” you feel it before you hear him—his hips stuttering, streams of hot cum filling you up endlessly until you’ve made a mess all around him. he groans loudly—a noise that you wish you could hear on repeat from how good he sounds, how good you made him feel.
none of this is grounding—it’s so extremely un-grounding that you feel like you’re floating on clouds. 
though you wish he wouldn’t, jack pulls out of you. his sheets must be ruined by now. 
“you okay, sweetheart?” he asks, and you can’t believe this is your life. 
“yes. are you okay?” you ask quietly, throat sore.
“yes,” he says, with a laugh, he helps you pull the skirt of your dress down and curl up next to him. his chest is warm and you think you could fall asleep pressed up against him like this. 
you trace patterns on his forearm where it rests next to you and stare at all the freckles. 
“we should have stayed out there. the sun’s setting soon.”
“yeah?” “yeah. i like your apartment.” you sigh and mew next to him, curling in closer, close to sleep. 
“yeah, kid? how would you feel about moving in?”
♡ thanks for reading!

“Robby!” you greet, opening the door of Jack’s house after a few quick knocks on the door. “Come in, thank you so much for coming early!”
“Of course,” he agrees, stepping in.
“I am so glad you’re here, Jack is not being helpful right now,” you laugh, “he’s dusting the baseboards and there’s still decorations to put up! I was about to get out the step ladder and do it myself.”
“Well, let’s keep you off the step ladder,” he jokes. “What’s first, boss?” he asks, clapping his hands together, ready to work.
“Okay,” you agree, leading Robby to the kitchen. “These are all in piles,” you explain, gesturing to the decor littering the kitchen counters and dining table, “these are for the living room, the front door, the table, and the kitchen. Um, the food will be here at 12:30, I still need to get ready, make the drinks, and-“ Robby cuts you off with a gentle hand on your shoulder.
“Well, it’s 12:15, why don’t you go get ready and I’ll figure out the decorations.” he smiles.
“12:15!?” you stress, “oh, I lost track of time! Thank you, thank you Robby.”
“Any time, go.” he urges.
You quickly turn, walking down the hall towards the bedroom, where your outfit sits and the bathroom awaits.
“Jack!” you call to him, still hiding somewhere with a duster. “Go help Robby!”
“Yes ma’am!” he calls back, seemingly from the office.
Jack appears next to Robby, who’s picked up the first pile of decor to inspect it.
“Hey brother,” he greets.
“Hey man,” Robby smiles, “you know the vision?”
“Yes I sure do,” Jack laughs, “this is about all she’s talked about for a week.”
“Well, let’s get to work.” he smiles.
The two work quickly, setting up table clothes, plates, napkins, cups, banners, and seemingly a million other items of decor.
They hang garland over the windows, put a sign on Jack’s porch so people know they’re at the right place, and help set up the food when it arrives a few minutes later.
Every couple of minutes, you pop your head out of the bedroom, looking around and shouting a “how’s it going?” before being ushered back into the bathroom to finish.
“Stop worrying, it’s going fine,” Jack assures, pointing back down the hallway.
“You know that’s not going that happen,” you laugh, jokingly digging your heels into the floor.
Jack pokes you in the side, laughing as you help and jerk away from the ticklish motion and glaring with mirth as you walk back to the bathroom to finish your makeup.
Jack returns to Robby’s side, the smile remaining.
“You know,” Robby starts, “I really like seeing you like this.” he notes.
“Yeah?” Jack murmurs.
“Yeah,” Robby agrees, “you’re different, man. I don’t know,” he ponders, “you seem happy.”
“I am happy.” Jack agrees.
Robby smiles, squeezing Jack’s shoulder.
“Alright,” Robby changes the subject, “What’s left?” he asks.
“Uhh,” Jack thinks, looking around his home and mentally ticking off boxes.
“I think drinks is all,” he says.
You come out a few minutes later, hair and makeup done and the dress you had picked out, tight and stretchy enough to show off your steadily growing bump.
“Gorgeous,” Jack tells you, one hand going to your bump as he gives you a sweet kiss.
“You’ve got some lip gloss,” you joke as he pulls away.
“The color working for me?” he asks, striking a pose.
“Looks great,” you laugh. You turn, taking a look around the rooms and checking that everything is where you imagined.
“It looks perfect out here,” you smile, “thank you both so much.” you say to the men in the kitchen.
“Pink!” Robby notes, gesturing to your dress, “does that mean what I think it means?” he asks giddily.
“Sure does,” Jack confirms with a smile. Robby grins even bigger, pulling him into a hug.
“Wow,” he marvels, “Jack Abbot, girl dad.”
“I’m getting a head start with this lip gloss,” he jokes, still not having wiped it off.
“Congratulations,” Robby says to you, also pulling you into a hug.
The doorbell rings, and a small snap of anxiety peels through you.
“Ah!” you yell, pulling back from Robby, “people are here.” you say to Jack, pulling him towards the door.
Jack opens the door to your best friends; Emily, Jiya, and Jada, all seeing you and immediately screaming in joy, rushing at you and pulling you into a group hug.
“Oh my god, look at you!” Emily shouts.
After releasing you, the quickly turn to Jack and pull him into a hug as well.
“Hi ladies,” he greets.
“Oh my god, it is so cute in here!” Jada gushes, looking around.
“Well come on, look around, um, there’s food and drinks and snacks, and help yourself!” you tell them, having to return to the door as the bell rings again.
All at once, it seems, Jacks modest townhome is bursting at the seams with people. You meet more of Jack’s coworkers, he meets some of yours along with some friends from college you’ve kept in touch with.
People continue to filter in for about 20 minutes, each greeting the two of you and then entering to mingle.
“Oh, look at you,” a blonde woman introduced to you as Dana marvels, taking you in. “Jack, how did you manage this?” she says with a laugh, gripping your arms after she gave you a hug.
“I ask myself that every day, Dana.” he chuckles.
She finds Robby in the fray and beelines to him, undoubtedly digging up all the information she can.
You meet his night-shift coworkers, Drs Ellis and Shen, who you’ve heard much about but have never met.
Jack had told you about the dramatic way he had invited them, giving you quite a laugh.
“Congratulations,” Dr. Shen tells you after introductions, then immediately turns toward the kitchen.
“Thank you!” you call after him.
Dr. Ellis is now in front of you and Jack alone, and she’s looking at you like she’s trying to figure you out.
“Yeah, congratulations!” she says with a smile.
“Thank you so much! And thank you for coming, I know 1pm is prime night shift sleeping hours.” you thank.
“Oh of course,” she agrees, “you find out your coworker is having a baby, you want to come and learn more.” she laughs.
“Well, due in December, completely healthy, all that fun stuff!” you tell her. “Gave me quite a run for my money the first couple of weeks, I thought I would never enjoy a meal again!” you laugh.
“Girl or boy?” she asks.
“Well, we have little prediction cards so we’ll tell everyone later and see who was right!” you say, pointing at a stack of papers on the coffee table.
You’ve greeted and chatted with everyone, and are finally able to take a breath.
“You hungry?” Jack asks. You nod with a smile.
“Let me get you some stuff,” he offers, “stay put.”
He leaves your side with a kiss.
You’re caught up with your friends, laughing at a story Jada is telling when he returns, holding out a plate piled with food.
“Thank you,” you smile, tilting your head up for another kiss, which he drops on your lips happily.
He leaves yet again, off to gossip with his coworkers as you get to work on your food.
“Ugh, he is so perfect.” Emily sighs.
You nod around a mouthful.
“I kind of won the jackpot with him.” you smile, “pun not intended.”
Your friends laugh loudly, filling your chest with warmth.
“Where do I find one?” Emily asks.
“A bar, I guess,” you laugh.
“Is that where you guys met?” someone asks from beside you. You turn, finding a group of Dana and some day shift doctors. If your memory works, you think their names are Heather and Samira.
They move over slightly, joining the four of you where you’re standing.
“Mm-hmm,” you agree, quickly swallowing your mouthful of food.
“He was sitting at a bar playing games on his phone,” you tell them. “And I just had to say something. Who goes to a bar to stare at their phone?” you joke.
“What did he say?” Heather asks.
“Something about it being peaceful for him,” you joke. “We chatted for a second, then I went back to my friends,” you explain, gesturing to the three in front of you. “But I caught him before he left.”
They smile at the happy tone of your voice.
“How long have you been dating?” Samira asks.
You laugh, “How many weeks pregnant am I?” you joke.
You see as the information settles into their brains, making the connection before they start laughing.
You join in, not embarrassed and able to see the humor in the situation.
“Oh my god, Jack Abbot,” Dana says, almost doubled over from laughing so hard.
“You would think a doctor knows that condoms expire,” you add with a chuckle.
The group dissolves into laughs one more time.
“Oh, I like you,” Dana says through her laughs.
Jack appears at your side then, called over by the loud laughter from the group.
“How’s it going over here?” he asks.
“I’m just airing out your dirty laundry.” you tell him.
“Of course,” he agrees, wrapping an arm around you waist. “Like what?”
“Just make sure to buy a new box of condoms after the baby makes their arrival.” Heather laughs.
A blush slides over Jack’s face as he chuckles with the group.
“Wouldn’t change a thing,” he mumbles, loud enough for everyone to hear, as he presses his face into the side of yours, giving you a kiss on the cheek as he pulls back.
Jacks coworkers smile indulgently at the sight.
The party continues, with cake and desserts being eaten, gifts being opened, and laughter being shared.
You truly do feel showered with love and well-wishes from everyone in attendance. Having your baby has turned from an abstract idea into something much more tangible. As you hold baby clothes, diapers, and all the gifts that were generously given, it seeps into you. In just a few months, you’ll hold a little baby that you made, with the responsibility of loving and caring for them.
Everyone is delighted to learn that you’re having a baby girl, and as the hours slip by, the guests start to slowly filter out the door.
“You have a good time?” Jack asks as the last few people left, leaving Emily, Jada, and Jiya who volunteered for clean-up duty.
“The best,” you gush with a wide smile. “Oh, Jack it was perfect.”
“I’m glad, honey.” he smiles. “Now let’s get this stuff down and cleaned up.”
“Alright, let’s go.” you agree.

take a break — michael "robby" robinavitch x fem!reader Robby is finally on vacation in Bali. He can't quite turn off the part of him that stays alert, but then he meets someone who somehow silences all the noise.
warnings: angst. smut 18+,  minors go away. this feels very romantic to me. i loved writing this. i never intended to include smut in this actually, i find it challenging, but it felt like a great addition to the story. pls be nice :") [p in v sex, no protection—don't do this kids, oral!fem receiving, fingering, swearing] not proofread. 4.4K words -- i think this is also the longest fic I've written so far masterlist
Tumblr media
It just finished raining, and the air feels sticky with heat and flowers. Robby's on his third day of vacation in Bali, and he's yet to do anything on this island they call paradise. No tours, no yoga by the beach, not even a swim.
It's beautiful here—almost painfully—but he keeps checking his phone like someone might page him. Old habits. No one’s paging him. Time zones are a buffer, and besides, he’s on the other side of the world. What could he possibly do?
He’s halfway through drinking from his coconut, perched on a wooden lounge chair by the beach, when he hears a voice beside him, amused and warm.
"You look like you’re trying to solve a math problem with your drink."
He looks up. You’re barefoot, sun-kissed, wearing loose cotton pants and a tank top, your hair a little wild from the humidity.
Robby blinks. "Is it that obvious?"
You motion to the seemingly permanent frown on his face.
Robby's seen you around the resort before. Always by yourself, with two books in one hand and a drink in the other. He thought about saying something multiple times, but always chickened out. Something about you felt... unapproachable. Not in an intimidating way, more in a you’re living fully and I’m not sure how to do that so I don't want to possibly ruin it for you way.
Now you both sit in silence, while Robby continues to check his phone again and sighs. That's when you hand him your book. "Here."
He blinks down at the cover. A Man Called Ove.
"One of my favorites. You should read it." You say, "Better than constantly checking your phone and regretting it a second later."
Robby snorts. You have a point.
"You lend books to strangers a lot?"
"If they look like they've been through some rough shit, yes."
That startles a laugh out of him—genuine, low, a little rusty. "I’m Michael. Robinavitch. You can call me Robby."
You offer your name in return, then nod toward the book. "Give it a chance. Let me know what you think."
"What makes you think I'll give your book back?"
You smile, stepping toward the path back to the resort. "I've seen you around the resort. And if you don't, I'll hunt you down."
You're feeling particularly exhausted today. One, because you just went out surfing for the entire day yesterday, but also because today, you were supposed to be walking down the aisle with the most beautiful dress, about to marry the love of your life. Instead, you're in a hotel room halfway across the world, alone, and feeling like shit.
Well, you suppose the day wasn't half bad. You finally managed to talk to the broody, quietly handsome guy who looks like he’s seen too much and somehow still comes off calm and steady. A smile tugs at your lips. He’s more charming than you expected.
Bali was not a place you thought you'd visit alone. You always imagined you'd be here with your ex-fiancé, drinking and watching the sunset. So you decide it's time to take care of yourself, wear that sundress you've been saving for a special occasion, and head to the resort's bar.
You sit down at your table, putting your book down and picking up the menu, when someone clears his throat, standing next to you.
Robby.
"This seat taken?"
You try to hide your smile. "Be my guest."
He smiles and sits across from you, putting his your book down on the table. He looks good—too good. He’s traded his usual loose t-shirt for a navy polo that clings in the right places, and linen pants that make his long legs look impossibly relaxed.
"You clean up nice." You say.
"You look beautiful." Robby counters, "Can I ask what's the occasion?"
You chuckle nervously, not ready to share the sad part of your life yet. Thankfully, you're saved by the waiter coming to take your order.
"Do you drink Rosé?" Robby asks after ordering your meals. And you nod, surprised. "Great, let's open a bottle of dry Rosé." He says to the waiter.
You raise your brows once the waiter leaves. "Didn't take you for a wine guy—let alone a Rosé? You're full of surprises, Michael."
"You sound like my mother when you call me like that." He groans.
"'Michael'?"
"Yes, and she also mocks my drink choices."
You laugh. "So what's the story?"
"A friend gifted me a dry Rosé one time as a joke. I didn’t want to waste it, so I drank it. Turns out, I liked it more than I wanted to admit. But keep that between us."
You hum, "Ah, yes, can't have you ruin your naturally broody aura."
"Me? Broody?" He snorts like it's ridiculous. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"You absolutely are."
With the food almost immediately devoured, you're left with wine and each other's company. The ocean hums in the distance, with the breeze prickling your skin. Robby’s gone quiet, admiring the view, the half-full glass of rosé resting loosely in his fingers.
"So, how do you like the book so far?"
He exhales, tipping his head back. "I wasn’t ready to love it. But it... got to me."
You grin. "Ove grows on you, doesn’t he?"
"Yeah," Robby murmurs. "Grumpy bastard made me feel things I wasn’t in the mood to feel."
You laugh. "That's the point. He's angry at life, but still shows up for people. Even when he doesn’t want to."
Robby nods, quiet for a second. "I think I know what that feels like."
You glance at him, surprised by the honesty. His jaw is tense, but his eyes are soft. You wonder if you should ask—but something tells you this moment is already fragile, and curiosity might crack it too soon.
Instead, you wait.
"I'm an ER doc." Robby swirls the wine in his glass absentmindedly. "Lots of chaos. Long hours. Lots of traumas, deaths… I used to think I was built for this line of work. The pressure, the adrenaline... the fixing things. And sometimes I still do. But lately…"
You don’t speak. You let him go on, because he needs to.
He takes a deep breath. "Lately I’ve been wondering if it's all catching up with me. Like—I walk around carrying everyone else's worst days, and I don’t even notice the weight until I sit still." He continues. "I’ve seen kids come in with gunshots. Mothers who collapse from exhaustion. People screaming for someone to save them, and you just have to keep moving like it doesn’t get to you. Like you’re above it. But you’re not. Not really."
Robby then takes a sharp breath. "Sorry. I'm not usually this..."
You offer him a small smile. "Broody?"
That earns a faint smile, but it doesn’t erase the weariness from his expression.
You figured it's only fair you share your story, too.
You put your wine glass down, your finger tracing the rim. "I was supposed to get married today."
That catches him off guard. His eyes widen, gently. "Oh. Today? As in—today today?"
"Yeah," You laugh under your breath, "Booked the venue and everything. Until 6 months ago, I found out he was cheating on me with one of my bridesmaids. Classic."
"Prick," Robby mutters.
"Right? So I pulled the plug on the wedding, and I've been traveling the world ever since. Running away, I guess. I was so caught up in the relationship that I think I lost part of myself." You sigh. "So now, I'm re-finding myself. Yay."
Robby chuckles. "And how's it going so far?"
You smile, "Let's just say I'm glad I'm not spending today alone."
He mirrors your smile, lifting his glass to cheer. "Me too."
"Walk with me?" you ask, gesturing toward the beach after you've finished your wine.
Robby doesn’t hesitate. "Lead the way."
You both kick off your shoes by the beach entrance and walk slowly along the shore, the water brushing your feet gently. You can feel the wine in your system now. The salty air hits your skin and lets your hair flow freely. Robby has never seen anyone more beautiful. He's glad it's dark out now, or you would've seen him blush.
You glance at him, and he’s already looking at you. Half-lidded, faintly flushed from the wine and maybe something more.
"I don’t usually let myself relax like this." He murmurs.
"And yet here you are, walking barefoot on a beach with a stranger, wine-drunk and poetic." You laugh lightly.
"Stranger?" He repeats, stepping in front of you gently, making you stop.
"No?"
"Feels like I've known you longer." He smiles lazily.
Your heart kicks up a notch, not sure what to say, so you just smile, turning to look towards the sea. The breeze has picked up, cooler now that the sun has long dipped below the horizon. You cross your arms, trying not to shiver, but the goosebumps along your arms give you away.
Without a word, Robby steps behind you. You feel his warmth before you feel the touch—his hands gently brushing your arms, then slowly wrapping around your waist. His chest is solid and steady against your back, and you let yourself lean into it, just a little.
He’s quiet, but you can hear the soft rhythm of his breathing, feel it where your shoulders meet his. The sea hums in the distance, but all you can think about is how your heart is racing—and how you can feel his breath on your skin.
"You're unlike anyone I've ever met." He says.
You chuckle and glance up at him, suddenly meeting his eyes. "That's the Rosé talking."
"Maybe," he says, almost to himself. "Or maybe I just really want to kiss you."
Your breath catches. That weightless feeling flutters in your chest, and the world seems to narrow to just the space between your mouths. He waits for your permission—doesn’t lean in right away, doesn’t push. Just watches you, his fingers still resting lightly on your waist.
So you give in. You lean up and close the space between you. It's slow, exploring new ground, like you're testing the heat between you. Robby’s lips are soft, warm, and his beard grazes your skin in the most deliciously distracting way. His hand slips around your waist, pulling you closer as he deepens the kiss, and you find your fingers brushing the edge of his jaw.
The kiss lingers on your lips even after it ends, like you don't want it to be over. Robby pulls back just enough to look at you, still hazy, still drunk on the moment. His hand is still snug at your waist, like he’s afraid to let go too quickly.
"I don’t want to overstep," he whispers, "But if I asked you to come back with me… would that be okay?"
You hesitate for a second, because something about this feels different than just a vacation fling, but you can't talk about it yet. You don't want to.
"I was hoping you’d ask," you murmur against his lips.
That earns you a smile and another short make-out session that leaves you breathless.
"Are we leaving or what?" You ask in between kisses.
He chuckles, "So impatient."
He takes your hand, lacing his fingers with yours, and you walk together barefoot, tipsy, and a little giddy from everything that’s happened tonight. The resort glows softly in the distance, lanterns swaying with the wind.
Once inside his room, you walk in slowly as if it doesn't look exactly like yours. The mood shifts. Robby closes the door behind you, and for a second, neither of you says anything. You just look at each other in the dim light, the tension from earlier about to snap.
Robby takes the first step closer to you, dragging his finger to lift your chin so he can kiss you again. And again. And again. And you sigh into his arms, hands on his broad chest.
"You can stop me any time."
"I won't."
He kisses you again, deeper this time. His hands slip around your waist, then your back, and up to where the straps of your dress rest. You can feel your heart flip when he hooks it on his finger, slowly peeling it off your shoulder, as if giving you time to push him away, but teasing at the same time.
You let the strap fall down your arm, and the other one soon follows. Robby’s gaze follows the motion like he’s watching something sacred, like he's not sure if he's allowed to want this but can't help himself anyway.
His fingers trail over your now-bare shoulder, and you shiver, goosebumps forming on your skin.
You take his hand and slowly make your way towards the bed, sitting down and placing your hands on his waist. You tug at his shirt, hinting you want it off, and he obliges, the shirt gone in one swift motion.
"You’re beautiful," He groans as he leans down to lie on top of you. "God."
You memorize the feel of him: warm skin, a strong chest under your palms, the steady rhythm of his breath stuttering slightly when your hands roam lower to reach his belt. He lets you undo it. Lets you unbutton his pants and pull them down as he peppers kisses throughout your body.
You let out a soft moan when his hand trails up your naked torso, hesitantly, ever so gently caressing your breast, teasing your nipple with his finger, while his mouth makes its way down to latch onto the other.
"Fuck, Robby." Your hand goes up to tug on his hair, earning you a lustful groan, while your other hand grabs onto his arm as an anchor.
Your head is spinning, and something is itching. You buck your hips up to meet his, and now his hand is pinning your waist down.
"You really need to work on your patience." He teases and stops kissing you.
"Can you really blame me?" You daringly take one of his hands, resting it on the slick heat between your thighs.
"Fuck." Robby closes his eyes, pressing his thumb to where he can feel your clitoris is, the sensitive bud poking out and pushing against your panties.
You throw your head back, hips bucking against his hand.
Robby slowly slips the little piece of clothing off, and you watch as his fingers smooth over your slit. He keeps his eyes on you as he lowers himself. You swallow as you anticipate what he's about to do.
"So fucking wet." He murmurs, leaving kitten licks on your clit.
You can only moan while he has his way with you. His hands are holding your thighs open for him, and you try your best to keep eye contact, but it's only making you falter faster. His eyes are dark, lustful, hungry, and you feel like you could cum just from watching him.
He gently sucks on your swollen bud, and you lose your mind when he inserts one finger. Then two. Your slick makes it easy for his fingers to move around and find your sensitive spot, he found it almost immediately, he can tell by the way your eyes roll back and how you clench around him every time.
"Robby—" You sigh with pleasure—a warning, bucking your hips again, and this time he lets you, feeling you're close to the edge. His fingers move expertly in and out of you, curling just at the right spot. Your breaths become erratic, following the pace of Robby's fingers. "Come, sweetheart." He says, almost as a command, and your body arches moments after, breath catching in your throat as waves of pleasure crash through you.
Robby doesn't immediately stop. He pumps his fingers a few more times until you're trembling away, and with a proud smirk, he pulls his fingers out, licks them to taste you—making sure you're watching—before hovering on top of you to kiss you.
You can taste yourself in his mouth, and you whimper, feeling him pressing against your cunt. You're still sensitive, but it feels like you're desperately hungry for more. More of Robby.
Robby tries to pace himself, he doesn't want to rush. He wants to cherish this, drag this out, because he doesn't want this to end. He wants to keep feeling your plush lips against his, your soft touches, your hands in his hair, your body pressed firmly against his.
"Robby," you whisper, your voice barely more than air, "I want you. Please."
And he loses all of his resolve.
Robby bites his lip as he sees your disheveled state. Lips swollen, hair a mess, hooded and hungry eyes, how can he say no to you?
He takes his boxers off, freeing his cock and letting it spring back up to his stomach. You gasp at the sight. He's gonna kill you. First with his gentleness, second with his cock, because you don't think you can handle that.
"Fuck off." You unintentionally comment.
Robby lets out a laugh. "Relax."
"Are you kidding?"
He just shakes his head and hovers over you again, but this time you push him over so he's sitting and you're on top, your sopping wet cunt sitting on his aching cock.
"Sweetheart, you're killing me." He closes his eyes and groans as you drag your hips along his length.
You decide neither of you would last any more teasing, so you take him in your hands, covered in your wetness and his precum, and push him against your folds. Your walls squeeze him as he bottoms out inside you, and you have to hold still for a while.
Robby's hands grip your waist and you're sure it'll leave marks in the morning, but you don't really care. You lift your hips slowly, leaving just the tip before slamming yourself back down, eliciting a moan from both of you.
You're set on a pace, slow, steady, allowing you to have control, but it's not enough. You groan and bury your face in Robby's neck. "Robby…"
"Hm?" He teases, like he knows what you're about to ask for.
"Please," You whisper. "I need…"
He pulls you from hiding your face, a confident smirk on his. But he decides to be merciful this time. Chuckling, he moves so you're now flat on your back again, legs tucked up and pressed onto your sides.
"Tell me if you want to stop, okay?"
You manage to let out a giggle. "Robby, don't worry—" your words are immediately cut off when he reinserts himself, the position makes it feel completely different from before. "—Holy fuck."
Robby starts slow, letting you fully adjust before feeling you clench around him, and he picks up the speed. You feel like the air is knocked out of your lungs, only able to take short breaths as Robby brutally drives into you, making you feel all of him.
You can't even moan anymore, your mouth just hangs open as you put your arms around his neck, pulling him down for a kiss you can't properly do. Strings of fuck—Robby—so deep—fuck—you feel so good are the only things you can muster as you feel your high approaching again.
You couldn't even warn him when your orgasm hits you. Your nails just dig into his shoulder as your eyes roll back, back arching as far as it could go, and walls spasming around him. He grunts, nibbling on your neck as his hips stutter, not expecting you to get so tight.
"Fuck." He moans as he spills inside you, staying still for a minute to catch his breath and make sure you're okay.
You're still panting and twitching under him, eyes still closed, but your hands draw small circles on the back of his head.
"'M gonna pull out now." He warns and you hum, moaning again when he does.
He stands up to get a towel to clean you up, "Don't go anywhere." He jokes.
You chuckle. "Don't think I can."
The room is quiet now, only the sound of the AC and the steady rhythm of your breaths can be heard. You're both tangled in the sheets, your leg draped over his, skin still warm from everything that just passed between you. Robby lies on his side, one arm wrapped around your waist, fingertips gently grazing your back in slow, absent-minded strokes. You’re tucked into his chest, your head resting in the curve of his shoulder, your fingers drawing lazy circles on his chest.
Eventually, he presses a kiss to your hair, his lips lingering there.
"You're kind of amazing," He mutters.
"Kind of?" You raise a brow.
He huffs a quiet laugh, "I’m trying not to let it go to your head."
You shift, propping your chin on his chest so you can look at him. His hair is tousled, his eyes soft, still heavy-lidded. "Too late."
He smiles and presses another kiss to your lips.
"Do you always kiss like that on vacation?" You tease.
He chuckles, "Only when I meet someone who gives me their favorite book."
"Pretty exclusive club."
"You're the only member."
You nuzzle closer into him, smiling into his chest. "I'm not gonna lie," You start, "This all feels a little surreal. I never thought I'd meet someone like you. You make all of this feel… right."
"I feel the same way." He admits, "I want to pause everything and just stay in our little bubble."
The silence stretches comfortably for a moment. And then, you get a gut-wrenching realization. "Oh. Right. You said you're only here for a week."
He nods, voice tighter, his hand still tracing along your side. "Yeah."
"So we’ve got, what… four more?"
"Mm-hm." He pulls you close to him, perhaps it's a way so you can't see his sullen expression. "Four more days in the bubble."
And it's hardly enough time.
The next few days blur in sunlight and ocean breeze, you take Robby on winding motorbike rides, wild ATV tours through the jungle, surfing lessons where you both wipe out laughing, and quiet moments snorkeling with whale sharks. You try to make as many memories as you can, all the while masking the dread of his departure. And at night, it’s always the same—his touch like a promise, your body moving with his in the dark, like you're both pretending the end isn't coming.
You both made the silent decision not to say where you’re from. Maybe if you find out he lives just hours away, it’ll make this too real. Too painful. Better to keep things suspended in this bubble, this almost-fairytale. Better to let it end on a hopeful note, instead of a practical-hurtful one.
You’ve told yourself this is just a fling. That some people come into your life for a reason, and maybe Robby was never meant to stay. Maybe he’s just a beautiful lesson in loving deeply and letting go.
You try not to cry in front of him. You want to make the goodbye easier than it feels, to shield him and yourself from the ache that's already blooming in your chest. You try to seem light, even when it’s breaking you.
It’s not easy for Robby, either. If he could, he’d offer you his world—just to wake up beside you every morning and fall asleep with you tucked against his chest. But it wouldn’t be fair. He could never ask you to upend your life for him, no matter how much he wants to.
And maybe that’s the hardest part, he wants to do this right. He wants to believe this is more than just a vacation high. But what if his reality—grueling shifts, emotional exhaustion, his work-life imbalance—ends up driving you away? There’s so much he wants to say, but maybe silence is the merciful choice.
It's the night before he leaves, and you can't say goodbye. But it’s there, hanging unspoken in the humid air between kisses, in the way you cling to each other just a little tighter. You talk quietly about nothing at all, and everything at once—movies you haven’t seen, food you miss, a joke about whale sharks that makes you both laugh a little too hard at 1AM.
At one point, while tracing lazy circles on his chest, he asks, "Should I go before you wake up?"
You don’t answer right away, but then nod. Robby can see your lips quivering slightly.
He pulls you closer to him, but neither of you falls asleep quickly. You make love again, slower this time, as if trying to memorize each other’s skin. As if trying to stretch the hours. You fall asleep tangled together, heartbeats in sync.
By the time the soft blue of dawn creeps up, Robby’s already awake. He moves quietly, getting dressed in the soft light, careful not to wake you. Before he leaves, he pauses by your bedside. You’re still curled under the covers, looking peaceful and beautiful.
He looks at you like he’s trying to remember everything.
Then he pulls something from his bag—a folded piece of paper—and tucks it gently into the book you gave him. His fingers linger on the cover for a beat too long.
He leaves without a sound.
You wake hours later to an empty room, your chest already aching before your mind catches up. You sit up slowly, the sheets cold beside you. You scan everything in your room, maybe Robby had left something behind that you could keep as a memento.
Then you see the book. You open it to find the note inside:
"You changed something in me. Thank you for letting me be yours, even just for a moment."
And that’s when you finally let yourself cry.

At work, most of Jack’s personal life remains a mystery. He considers himself close to Robby, being genuine friends outside of the walls of the hospital. The others, not so much.
The bottom line is that Jack’s a private guy, and doesn’t want to air out his business to be discussed and speculated about down every hallway of the hospital.
One thing he does love, though, is the feeling of smug satisfaction he feels when he surprises people.
“Ellis, Shen,” he calls to his night-shift coworkers as he sees them, backpacks on and ready to leave early in the morning.
They both turn towards him, waiting.
“What are you guys doing on Saturday afternoon?” he asks.
They both open their mouths to speak, but Jack interrupts them before they can make a sound.
“Well, you’re invited to a baby shower, so actually don’t do anything,” he instructs with a carefully crafted look on neutrality on his face. “My house, 1pm.” he finishes with a smile.
The two doctors in front of him gape, questioning looks on their faces as they stare him down. He keeps his smile bright.
Shen snaps out of it first, unflappable as always.
“Cool man, I’ll be there.” he agrees.
Ellis shakes her head in disbelief.
“I’m sorry, I’ll need a few more details,” she says sarcastically, “what?”
“A baby shower.” Jack reiterates.
“Yeah, I got that. For who?” she asks.
“Typically they’re kind of for a baby.” he replies matter of factly.
“Oh my god,” she mutters under her breath. “Who’s pregnant?” she asks.
“My girlfriend.” he tells her with another smile.
“You-“ she stutters, “since when do you-?” she stops herself. Sighing and rolling out her tense shoulders. “Whatever, I’ll be there.” she agrees.
“Awesome, thanks, I’ll send you guys my address.” he smiles, leaving them standing there with unanswered questions as he walks back toward the hub, looking for Robby.
He finds him, hands on his hips as he observes the boards. They had already done turnover, so the ED is alight with movement and all the day shift doctors.
“Hey man,” Jack greets as he claps Robby on the back.
“Hey,” Robby greets as he takes on his glasses.
Dana looks up from her computer, eyeing Jack skeptically.
“You better get out of here Jack, we know you and sunlight don’t get along.” she jokes.
“Yeah, yeah; I’m getting better about it, though.” he says, pointing at her.
“Baby shower, Saturday at one, can you make it?” he asks Robby.
His friend nods his head, “Yeah, yeah I’ll get it covered.” he agrees.
“Invite whoever isn’t working from day shift, just send ‘em my address, they’re all invited.” he tells Robby.
Dana slides herself along the counter closest to the two, looking at Jack expectantly.
“I’m sorry,” she starts, “I think my ears are playing tricks on me. Baby shower?” she asks.
Jack nods. “Obviously, you’re invited too, I hope you’re not working Saturday.”
“I’m not.” she says, deadpan. “You’re having a baby?” she asks, a wide smile crawling over her face.
“Sure am.” he confirms, a matching smile on his.
“Well I’ll be…” she trails off with a grin.
“Invite the people,” he says, turning back to Robby, “and come early to set up.” he tells him.
“Aye aye, captain.” he agrees.
Jack turns and leaves, watching as Dana’s eyes turn to Robby with a look like she’s about to sink her information-seeking claws into him and not let go.
He heads home, eats a quick breakfast, and falls asleep hard.
He’s in the trenches of trying to buy that house, so he wakes up earlier than he wants to be able to exchange some messages with the working public while the day isn’t almost over. Working night shift makes doing normal human tasks much more difficult.
He’s able to exchange a few texts with you while you work, smiling as you tell him about your work problems.
You had sent Jack pictures of decorations you wanted for the baby shower, so he picks himself off the couch to head to a party supply store.
Yes honey, whatever you want honey, he had told you when you stressed to high heaven about how you would have enough time to get all the decorations, send invitations, cook the food, and set up for the party before Saturday came. He volunteered to get the decorations, assured you that you don’t need invitations, and asked what food you wanted to be catered, not made my either of them.
He enjoyed life much more when you weren’t stressed about things that didn’t need to be stressed about, and happily does whatever he can to take some of the stress off of your shoulders.
Today is shaping up to be a good day, he thinks, after dropping the baby bomb on his coworkers, successfully buying everything on the list you had made for him, and especially now, he things looking down at his phone.
He had just gotten an email from his realtor that his offer on the house was accepted, and he was now under contract. With how quickly that went, he has a sliver of hope that they could move in before they have their December baby.
Right now, Jack Abbot could not be happier with his life, and can’t wait for Saturday.
